How to automate diskdefragmentation

Hi sevenforums,

How can I automate disk defragmentation(assuming with task scheduler) if my fragmentation reaches 30% for C drive?

Windows 7, by default, defrags your Hard Drive (HDD) via task scheduler, it is disabled, by default, with Solid State Drive (SSD).

Hi JP,

Task scheduler does not have a run when X% reached, so it would have to be time based ie monthly.


Note
SSD's should NOT be defragged.

Hello jpchint, do you have any PowerShell scripting experience?

Is this article any use to you: Use PowerShell to Determine Fragmentation of your Drive?

Article suggests accessing WMI method DefragAnalysis, and querying the TotalPercentFragmentation member to achieve your scripting goal.

Awesome,thanks..
